Usage

From London to Pondicherry, Saffron Gin is a true promise of a journey. This original gin with exotic notes is distilled in Dijon and serves as the foundation for many cocktails, with the most famous being the Saffron Gin Tonic.

History

At the end of World War II, Maison Gabriel Boudier became one of the few specialists in French Gin by securing the supply of Gin to the American army in Europe. Saffron Gin is a recipe rediscovered in the archives of Maison Boudier from a time when France and England had established trade outposts in India. Its harmony stems from the interplay between the spiciness of saffron and the elegant bitterness of juniper.

Product development

Our Saffron Gin is crafted through the distillation of 7 botanicals, all distilled simultaneously in the family's copper still: Juniper, Coriander, Lemon Peel, Orange Peel, Angelica, Iris, and Fennel. This distillation yields a concentrate, called a "botanical alcoholate," of these 7 botanicals, to which we add an infusion carefully crafted by us using genuine saffron filaments from Crocus Sativus, bringing the total number of botanicals to 8. The blend of the alcoholate and the saffron-infused solution is then reduced in alcohol content through dilution to 40% alcohol by volume.
